When we come back. We take you inside Age Management clinics. What they do and why even some doctors are taking their own medicine. Things are getting brighter downtown.

Age management clinics are expensive. And some of their reatments are controversial. But that isnt stopping patients, even some doctors themselves, from trying to recapture their younger selves. Once a year Jeff Ocheltree oh kelltree undergoes a four hour checkup that looks nothing like your doctors office. Because once the basics like posture and his range of motion are checked out. Jeff undergoes what very few of us would in a usual exam. An ultra sound machine measures the amount of cholesterol in his corotid arteries his bodys bones are scanned and measured for density.

She is skeptical that Age Management clinics can do anything more for you than you could do for yourself. Everybody wants to live longer and live better.
